p_word_group and p_acc_group parameters in p_manage_01 and p_manage_02

Description:
What is the "p_word_group" parameter (seen in the p_manage_01 log)?
And what is the "p_acc_group" parameter (seen in the p_manage_02 log)?
They are not on the GUI Services submission screens -- nor is there any mention of them in the Help screens.
Resolution:
The meaning and use of these parameters is found in the tab11_word and tab11_acc headers. Here's the entry in tab11_acc:
! COL 7. 1; TEXT {A,B,C, ,}; ;
! Group;
! Values are: A, B or C. This column may be used to define a
! particular group of fields that will be used to create a
! new headings index. This option cannot be used for an
! already existing index. Also, this option is available
! only when the program is run from the Unix command line.
! It is not available from the Headings index batch service.
! The following is an example of the way in which the program
! should be run for fields that belong to group B:
! csh -f p_manage_02 USM01,0,000000000,999999999,B,1,N,00,
This has been used successfully in cases where a site wanted to add a new Browse index. It must be a brand-new index. Using it to regenerate an existing index results in duplicates.
Note: tab11_word used to also have a column for Group, but it never worked properly and has been removed.
